When Kayley Stead’s fiancé vanished hours before her nuptials she was devastated – but she bravely went ahead with the reception and now says it was a lucky escape, which led her to the love of her life.

Here she tells OK! her story... "If someone had told me on 16 September 2022 that I’d one day be happier than ever, I’m not sure I would have believed them.That day should have been my wedding day.The day before, I’d kissed my fiancé goodbye and the last thing he said was,“I can’t wait to see you tomorrow” and I’d joked back, “I’ll be the one wearing white.” But that morning, at 7.30am, as I was getting my make-up done, one of the grooms men called and told me Kallum had disappeared and they had no clue where he’d gone.

I burst into tears, but I refused to believe he’d leave like that. For the next four hours I veered between despair and hope.

I didn’t tell anyone except my bridal party, so he wouldn’t be judged if he turned up. But at 11.30am his dad phoned and told me Kallum was in Portsmouth, over four hours’ drive away.There was no way he was going to make it for 1.30pm.
